The rest I liked--I had no major problem with it (other than Bubastis just seemed thrown in as an afterthought--wasn't she in the comic way earlier?).
Yeah from almost the beginning, I think. Bubastis in the book was there early on as foreshadowing as to how far along Adrien was with genetic engineering (later used to create the Squid of course).
I think thats one of the things they sorta dropped the ball on, as there was no actual explanation for Bubastis, which is kinda strange when they are trying to push the fact Manhattan is the only superpowered being out there, yet all of a sudden, this weird mutated tiger comes out of nowhere. It must have left some people confused or maybe they thought it was Battlecat!
I get the feeling that some people will believe that both Ozy and Comedian had superpowers (I didnt like the bit where Comedian punched that wall and smashed a huge chunk out of it), and adding Bubastis into the equation, without even so much as a throwaway one line explanation, takes things away from it being about normal humans rather than super powered ones.
Its a minor quibble, but its something that should have at least been explained briefly.
